Costate spoke without courtesy, "Lord Heins, curb your little sches. The things are not yet in our hands, and we’re already fighting among ourselves. It’s disgraceful."
Heins snorted coldly, he was rely probing the thoughts of others and didn’t really intend to discuss the matter.
But Costate’s words made him quite displeased, "What do you an by little sches? This is an inevitable situation we’ll face. Prince, haven’t you thought about it, or do you already have thoughts but are keeping quiet?"
In the distance, it seed that action had already begun, as one of the chosen had already approached the Holy Castle.
Everything was ready.
Costate said expressionlessly, "Let’s first solve the matter at hand. It will be a while before we truly obtain the Holy Castle. Azure Dragon will not give up easily."
Heins sneered, "Don’t use Azure Dragon as an excuse. He can no longer access the Holy Castle. If you have thoughts, speak them frankly, it’s better than scheming in the shadows."
Heckler’s eyebrows were tightly furrowed, staring intently at the scene in the distance. It seed sothing unexpected had happened.
Costate then sneered, "The Holy Castle was discovered by the Empire. It was you who forcefully intervened. Speak frankly?"
"Ha..." Heins laughed loudly, "Finally speaking your mind. I knew the Empire was brooding over this... maybe..."
Before he could finish, they heard Heckler angrily shout, "Shut up! You bunch of idiots!"
Heins’ face turned cold, and Heckler’s expression was extrely grim, "There’s been an accident."
"Hmm?"
Only then did the three react, looking toward the chosen one near the Holy Castle.
Only to see him holding up the Skull in his hands, seemingly shouting continuously.
Yet the Holy Castle remained unresponsive.
"How could this be?" Heckler’s forehead twitched as he flew forward.
The expressions of the three turned increasingly serious, and an ominous premonition gripped their hearts. They forgot about quarreling and quickly followed.
When they got closer, they could hear the chosen one tremblingly responding to Heckler’s question.
"I... I don’t know what happened, I’m just saying what you guys instructed."
Heckler’s face was incredibly dark, "Try again."
Under everyone’s watchful eyes, they saw this chosen one holding the purple Skull, trying to keep their voice steady, "I request to undertake the King-making Trial!"
The words were exactly the sa as what Leonidas had said before.
However, the Holy Castle stayed silent, no longer projecting a guiding beam like last ti.
"What’s going on?" Heins, the most impatient, imdiately questioned, "Why is it different from last ti? Did your people do sothing?"
"Idiots!" Heckler scolded unceremoniously, "Can you use your brain when speaking? If we could easily tamper with the Holy Castle, do we still need you?"
Schmidt furrowed his brows, "What’s the situation? The previous thod is no longer effective, does this an my plan has failed?"
Costate’s expression was tight, but an extrely strong, familiar feeling erged in his heart.
That feeling is called "unexpected circumstances", since contacting Azure Dragon, such unexpected occurrences have almost exceeded the sum total since he beca Prince.
"Azure Dragon!" He uttered the two words, instantly attracting everyone’s attention.
"Do you an Azure Dragon is causing trouble?" Heins’ expression changed slightly.
"Since the end of the last event, the only anomaly produced is the sudden connection between Azure Dragon and the Holy Castle just now." Costate’s expression was solemn,
"Perhaps it was during that brief connection that Azure Dragon caused so influence on the Holy Castle, making our thods ineffective."
Azure Dragon?
Heins’ face turned red and then ashen, with a subtle twitch as he recalled his earlier words and the "disdain" for Azure Dragon, it felt like two slaps on his face now.
This made him unable to help but retort, "Don’t push everything onto Azure Dragon. Perhaps it’s your people causing trouble."
"Tell Malcolm to switch people." Heckler almost squeezed this sentence out from his throat, his gaze locked on the Holy Castle in front of him.
Attempting again with a different person, the result was still the sa.
The cold, hard reality told Heckler that the loophole he painstakingly discovered had been patched.
If not for Azure Dragon, if not for the bizarre space-ti curtain, the Holy Castle would already be mine.
Heckler roared inwardly, his mindset had been unable to stay calm since the intervention of the Three Great Civilizations.
Despite being taunted, Heins’ breathing quickened, yet the seemingly reckless Heins did not fan the flas further and suppressed his anger.
Schmidt’s expression changed, an indescribable sense of defeat swept over him. Strictly speaking, this was only his second encounter with Azure Dragon.
He sighed, "Thought I finally beat Azure Dragon this ti, but it was a pyrrhic victory."
"All previous plans were based on being able to squeeze in; now we have to start all over again." Saying this, Schmidt felt increasingly helpless,
"Solving the Holy Castle’s Energy Shield head-on is unlikely without ten years."
"Ten years, there’s too much uncertainty." Costate, however, showed little reaction, long accustod to the accidental situations caused by Azure Dragon.
"The good news for now is that Azure Dragon cannot access the Holy Castle either."
"As for starting over..." Costate’s gaze swept across Heckler, "Let’s report this matter first."
Everyone’s expressions were grim; this was the most unexpected accident, even when being outsmarted by Azure Dragon in the High-level United Organization, they hadn’t been as angry.
